1) I was a student in the radio broadcasting program at Mohawk College and the moment means little to me as a Canadian.
2) I was sleeping (i was 6) and my Dad got me up to see them get the Cup.
3) I was working and the boss came in and told us. Real drag, he had promised me a pair of tickets for 5 games that season. I left the job for my present one before the next season started. No more freebies.
4) At the time Sittler and Salming were my favorite players. I decided not to go out with my friends that night (they were going to a movie) and so I stayed home and witnessed the single greatest game in NHL history. Sittler scores 10 points. Total fluke.
5) I stayed at home again to watch the game. It was a very sad night.

1. Wasn't born yet. (Don't make fun of me!)
2. Outside the forum on the plaza. Just amzaing when they won. And I almost didn't go because the forecast for the night was rain.
3. I remember being in a local sports bar, and the news coming across SportsCenter. I honestly didn't know what to expect.
4. Vinny scoring 52 goals last year (a team record) I saw number 50 on TV. It may have been the most lucky goal he has ever scored. He pulls a spin move and backhands it from the top circle. It slips under Cam Wards pads and into the net.
5. Again, wasn't alive
EDIT - O. I guess I was alive when Gretzky played his last game. But I was both too young and not really into hockey at that time.

1. I wasn't born.
2. In the computer room watching the last 10sec count down.
3. I think after I saw that, I was crying no hockey for a season why is the world ending in such a cruel way?
4. My favorite player never accomplished an outstanding milestone.
5.I was to young to remember it.

1. I was about 3 years old at the time, so I don't remember.
2. At home, then came outside to to high-five my neighbors, then drove to the Forum, to party. I would have loved to be there, but tickets sold-out in a split second.
3. I was at work, slacking off on the Internet. It was on the home page on the NHL website. Man, that was a long year.
4. This one is hard because I have so many fav. players....I'll say Vinny Lecavalier's 50th goal was pretty good.
5. I was in a statics class in college (I worked in the day, and went to school at night). I couldn't watch much hockey then.

1. I was 2 years old, so I'm guessing I was probably in bed, or playing with some smurfs or something.
2. Sadly, they have not won yet =)
3. I was in the car, I heard it on the radio. I was so bummed because I had just started getting into hockey, and was really looking forward to going to a few games.
4. Danny Briere was my favorite Sabre from my first game in 2003, until he left. When he got his first hat trick, I was home pregnant and not feeling well on the couch, listening to the game on WGR =) I watched the highlights on the news.
5. Unfortunately, I wasn't a hockey fan then. But I was probably just hanging out at home that night.

1. In school, in disblief that i was going to hear about the US winning anything in hockey for the next 27 years ... then to make a movie about it also .. lol.
2. Watching it on TV.
3. Watching it on TV ... again in shock, but more pissed off then when question 1 happened.
4. Gretzky becoming the all time point leader .. watching it on TV.
5. Again, watching it on TV ... him going through sticks every 2 minutes, so everyone would get a stick from his final game.
Holy frig, I watch way too much TV.

1. I wasn't even close to becoming a zygote at that point
2. I'll let you know when it happens
3. I was in school in Erie, PA with the only other hockey fan from Buffalo in my building
4. My fave is Kotalik and my personal fave moment was the first time I saw him get into with another player, only because he's so mild mannered all the time. That was Sept 31st of this year, I was at the game.
5. At my friend Erin's watching the game

1. I wasn't born yet. I was born in 1988.
2. I wasn't born yet. My dad wasn't born yet either! He was born in 1963, two years after the Blackhawks won.
3. At driver's ed getting ready to get my license.
4. My favorite player isn't in the NHL anymore. Tony Amonte.
5. I was 10. Chances are I was playing my brother's Playstation. I didn't like Gretzky too much. He looks like Julie Andrews in drag!

1. At work & missed the game.
2. The Sharks haven't won it yet.
3. Watching ESPN at home. Made me sick when I heard it.
4. That's a tough one. I've had many favorite players. I would have to say the most recent would be Joe Thornton winning MVP.
5. Probably at work. Don't remember.

1- I was one year old, can't remember.
2- I wasn't born yet (Black Hawks fan).
3- Thinking, wow these morons are going to kill the NHL.
4- Watching the Stars win the cup with Eddie "The Eagle" Belfour.
5- Probably watching a Hawks game, I always will say what Super Mario did, playing hockey with greatness and with cancer was more impressive than what the Great One did.
